Six of Ohio State’s 11 early enrollees already have different position coaches than those who recruited them, but they’re embracing the changes as they begin their Buckeye careers.
Among the 11 members of Ohio State’s freshman class of 2022 who arrived on campus last month as early enrollees, six of them already have different position coaches than the ones who recruited them to become Buckeyes.
“ called my phone before and he just let me know, like, this is what’s best for the team, this is how we’re moving forward and I was like okay Coach, let’s get it.” Brown, Turner, Hicks and Powers all found out that their position coaches would be leaving after they had already arrived at Ohio State. Fitzpatrick found out just a few days before arriving, in the middle of a practice at the All-American Bowl, when a reporter informed him Ohio State had fired Studrawa.
Turner and Brown said they’re impressed with Walton’s pedigree as an NFL cornerbacks coach – both of them specifically mentioned his experience coaching All-Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey – and that they expect Walton to help them achieve their NFL goals. “They've coached the best of the best, they've been around the best of the best,” Stokes said. “So I feel like they have a lot of knowledge and wisdom to pass on. And I'm just interested and eager to learn from them.”
